Scalar data science review needed

I was thinking to join data science course in scalar program. Quite expensive program hence please help me to say whether course is worth for beginners wrt course ,teaching and projects in the curriculum. Also whether they have a job placement after course completion and whether actually we get jobs . I am already 9 years experienced but from database and devops background not data engineering. If anything better course then scalar along with placement ,that also can be advised.Thanks in advance

I was with Scaler till last month and I can confirm the data science placement are not that very good, the team is struggling a lot for placements.

Only ~100 got placed out of 10,000 enrolled in Data Science. When someone asks the response will be it's a fair new program and blah blah shit by founders.

If placement is the key please don't enroll, you will find a lot of scripted and paid testimonials to distract but these all are marketing methods used by scaler to distract everyone. Even alumni get referrals for convincing users to get enroll in the course. Stay safe

To be honest the NPS for data science is also not that good, Mudit Goel intiated the Data Science program for Scaler and he has also left. The module and content and teaching quality is great:)

These courses are targeted towards college students. You having 9 experience means you can just pick up things yourself at a much faster pace then wasting time on courses.
